This study of women undergoing adjuvant endocrine therapy for early breast cancer reveals that fatigue and emotional distress are the primary, interrelated drivers of perceived cognitive impairment, suggesting that routine screening and management of these modifiable symptoms are essential for improving survivorship care and treatment adherence.
This prospective cross-sectional study at Mulago National Referral Hospital found that obstructive sleep apnoea affects 88.5% of children aged 2–7 with adenotonsillar hypertrophy and demonstrated that the OSA-5 questionnaire achieves perfect sensitivity and specificity in diagnosing the condition within this high-risk population, suggesting its utility for prioritizing care in low-resource settings.
This retrospective observational study at a French university hospital reveals that opioid prescribing practices for dyspnea in palliative care are characterized by substantial variability across different settings, with most patients already on opioids prior to specialist involvement and dose adjustments primarily driven by the need for symptom relief.
This systematic review of 546 post-bariatric patients indicates that long-term weight loss shifts hemostasis from a prothrombotic state to a less coagulable, more fibrinolytic condition, suggesting a potential hidden coagulopathy that warrants further investigation despite the lack of immediate clinical bleeding risk.
This study in Dodoma, Tanzania, reveals that overweight and obese pregnant women, despite consuming diets linked to both improved hemoglobin and increased cardiometabolic risks, frequently fail to meet micronutrient recommendations and neglect essential supplements.
This qualitative study conducted in La Réunion reveals that while parents are intuitively aware of endocrine disruptors during the perinatal period, they face significant challenges due to contradictory information and media-driven sources, highlighting an urgent need for reliable, unbiased, and accessible health guidance.
This study presents an open-source, lightweight YOLOv8-based diagnostic system for prostatic acinar adenocarcinoma that achieves high accuracy in Gleason grading and lesion detection while offering a cost-effective, locally deployable alternative to expensive commercial and closed-source AI solutions.
This retrospective cohort study of 1,594 severe subarachnoid hemorrhage patients demonstrates that higher Time in Range (TIR) is an independent, potent protective factor against short- and long-term mortality, an association partially mediated by reduced systemic inflammation and most pronounced in non-septic patients.
This qualitative study conducted in Gorkha District, Nepal, identifies multi-level barriers—including geographical inaccessibility, competing household responsibilities, and health system constraints—as the primary drivers of low Growth Monitoring and Promotion (GMP) service utilization, while highlighting community support and service integration as key facilitators for improving uptake.
This secondary analysis of data from 54 Nigerian tertiary hospitals reveals that teenage pregnancy, which has a national prevalence of 3.5% and is concentrated in the North, is associated with significant socio-demographic disadvantages and significantly increased risks of preeclampsia/eclampsia and adverse perinatal outcomes compared to non-teenage pregnancies.
